Daedalus and Icarus | Storyteller: Greek Myths | The Jim Henson Company

wait isent the das Dionysus

"He died?"
"...he died."

That always chokes me up. The Greek Myths on the whole weren't great, but this one is one of the best Storytellers bar none.

And Icarus fell into the sea and call the sea “The Icarian Sea”

I remember watching this shows on greek myths when I was a kid and how they blew my mind.

icarus is still alive he fell into water not spikes

too late :'(

i really liked it, but it was also so sad

i remember seeing this at my highschool, the puppets kinda creeped me out

I’m not crying etc...

I really do feel sorry for Deadalus. Along with Icarus.

2019? No just me okay ._.

the jim henson company? more like jim ass-son company

Derek Jacobi !!

What’s up mr walter

YOU KILLED HIM

Children grow to be adults by listening to their mothers and fathers 🙏🏽

THIS IS IT! This is the show I saw years and years ago! The vulture scene FUCKED ME UP as a kid I could never ever get it out of my head I can’t believe I found it!!!!!

CAREFUL ICARUS...


Geoff the Robot sent me here.

Great story. Like all great stories they transcend generations. Not just you. Busy world busy people focused on the unimportant things. The cream rises to the top.

Woooooow I dog can talk





Daedalus: ICARUS STAY WITH ME

Icarus: ignores and wax melts


Icarus: breaks wings on purpose


Icarus: yeets into water

Icarus: YEET ✌️✌️😎😎

The sun is millions of miles in space, oh, right, mythology.

Always a little disappointed when they have to change or leave out things from Greek mythology to make it suitable for TV or children, from the versions I've read the majority of it is that Daedalus wasn't fleeing, he was exiled and he's son wasn't born until after he found a place in Crete, and they always leave out how the Minotaur came into being; his mother was cursed with an unatural lust for the king Minos prized bull for claiming to be more beautiful than a goddess, she had Daedalus make a hollow cow for her to climb into and give into her lust. After the monsters birth the labyrinth was constructed to imprison it as well as it's maker and son, after escaping and losing his son he found another kingdom to call home and befriended the king's two daughters, it was these daughters who killed Minos when he came to claim Daedalus.

OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO REMEMBER THE NAME OF THIS MOVIE FOR YEARS AND I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!!!!!

cool not realy

Remarkable creative license on behalf of Nigel Williams!

ok ı have quiz in 1 min and ı didnt understand anything shit

Dang. Icarus was indeed a dumb ass.

I just remembered this story I was watching kong skull island and they said the story and I was like that sounds familiar so I searched it up and it’s just like I remembered when I was little

The vulture is so horrifying in the way it poisons Daedalus’ ego. Love it

"Love him..Daedalus.... Love him to death..."

How did I not know this.(the muppets)

I know the tale of Icarus.

This is harrrrrrrrdddd

The vulture scene traumatized me as a kid.

Poor icarus

I thought Icarus is a girl, because in the song : Stories from the movie Beauty and the Beast The Enchanted Christmas 🎄 I saw Icarus wearing a knee length skirt

I reply love the background music as they fly

What the frick..!

When was the film finished?

When I do Jem and The Chocolate Factory, Lynne (Brianna’s mom) will mention this Greek myth to Brianna in the scene where The Zeiglers and Jem and The Holograms try the Flying Bubble Potions. Luckily they didn’t get caught by Frank Sarris’ chocolate elves! The Zeiglers and Jem and The Holograms were able to descend by burping.

The scene when Icarus death fell in the sea it made me cry inside! 😢

Gyatasaurus

great video!

The phrase "Fly too close to the sun, and you'll get burned" is a modern adaptation of the Greek myth of Icarus.
